Oscars? Not Me.

I refused to watch the Oscars;
There's no appeal for me.
It's just a bunch of actors
Up there for you to see.
A parade of mental illness.

They spend their lives pretending;
Not revealing who they are
And all you see is lie on lie
As they seek to be a star
In a culture of look-at-me.

They titillate their audience
With outrageous speech and clothes
But who they are beneath all that
No one really knows.
Why would anyone want to emulate?

It's no wonder they are drawn
To certain politicians
Since its all about pretending
And righteous admonitions.
With lie upon lie upon lie upon lie....
